I’m not seeing many people taking about it online when talking about music player on Linux, So I make this post to spread the word https://www.nokarin.xyz/projects/aqloss#download , https://flathub.org/en/apps/xyz.nokarin.aqloss
I recently found cmus and have really taken a liking to it - mostly because it’s really lightweight, and I love the novelty of my music player running in the terminal.
Oh and I get to do really cute, useless things nextt it
But I’ll have to give Aqloss a try :)
I misread the name at first and got confused.
Yeah, it’s a tragic name for the dyslexic lol
With a webpage like that, I’m not surprised that no one takes it serious. Looks like it fell straight out of a startup. 😵💫
Yeah it kinda showy but in a way I like it
This website is aggressively bad. Why does my cursor have to disappear completely when I stop moving and become a gray circle when I do move it? Way over-designed.
it’s vibecoded, just look at the design
Oh this is great, I’ve been using Elisa for a while, but this is so pretty & customisable, definitely gonna keep using this.
I like the fact that I can edit track info or automatically edit tracks in an album and add album covers in Clementine. Any music player alternatives that can do the same?
Rhythmbox
“ZHIEND is not rock! Its post rock!” God I miss that anime T~T
It was so good
I recently discovered Rufin and I’m so happy with it.
It meets most of my needs such as ListenBrainz scrobbling, Linux & Windows versions (and even a future Android one according to the latest release), Discord Rich Presence, and basically every other feature I would expect a local music player to have.
Bonus it is written in Rust 🦀
I get so annoyed when there’s no forum and just a discord. Discord sucks
Well, according to the latest discussion there is a Matrix room: https://github.com/screwys/Rufin/discussions/1178
I’m working on Lempi, which is both similar and different - mostly on how the DJ works:
Rufin’s Auto DJ says “more like this track” and trusts the server’s idea of similar. Lempi works like a radio programmer with rules: it decides how often each song may come back, what fits this hour, and what follows well from the last track, then adds a controlled amount of chance.

I’ve been off and on developing Lempi for personal use since 2020 - it has other names in the past, most recently changed becasue I was developing under a name somebody else “went wide” with in 2023. There’s a lot of music players out there.
